Chapter 306: Three Methods
Watching Luo Yan step closer, Liu Xiao felt sweat on his back. He glanced at Yu Qiushui, who winked at him, indicating he needed to solve his own problems.
Liu Xiao cursed Yu Qiushui in his mind.
Liu Xiao was thrilled to be chosen as one of the two examiners this time. It was a rare opportunity for him.
As he had mentioned before, the organization had a rule that if one examiner deemed the team unfit, Team 7’s squad inspection would not pass.
Liu Xiao was determined to trip up Team 7 and prevent ‘Red Ghost’ from becoming the captain.
Though this would embarrass Yu Qiushui, losing the “Wild horse Base” would greatly weaken Liu Xiao.
In order to prevent Yu Qiushui and Team 7 from teaming up and dominating the Black Abyss Branch, he had to risk confronting Yu Qiushui to sabotage Team 7’s formation.
Unexpectedly, Yu Qiushui remained poker-faced throughout.
Furthermore, ‘Red Ghost’ was much stronger than he had anticipated.
When they first met, Zhang Ze demanded the return of his mecha, and now he boldly threatened the inspector.
Liu Xiao appeared calm on the outside, but inside he was very nervous, feeling that he was not much stronger than Zhang Ze.
The elemental power fluctuations shown by ‘Red Ghost’ now seemed even stronger than rumored.
With the ambiguous attitude of Yu Qiushui, Liu Xiao felt conflicted. The worst-case scenario now was Yu Qiushui teaming up with ‘Red Ghost’ to get rid of him.
This was not impossible!
By blaming everything on ‘Red Ghost’ afterwards, Yu Qiushui could stay out of trouble.
Liu Xiao’s eyes darted around, and when Luo Yan was only seven steps away, he firmly said, “That’s enough!”
Luo Yan looked up.
Liu Xiao, without hesitation, said, “I was just testing the captain’s resolve of ‘Red Ghost’ earlier.”
“Now I know that Team 7 in Captain Red Ghost’s hands will excel for sure.”
“I declare that Team 7’s strength completely meets the organization’s standards!”
“I wonder what Captain Yu will say?”
Yu Qiushui chuckled, “I recommended Captain Red Ghost, so I can’t go back on my word now.”
“Since Captain Liu thinks Team 7 is qualified, I will give my full support.”
“Congratulations, Captain Red Ghost, you have completed an important mission.”
Luo Yan slowly withdrew the Elemental Power.
Then he exclaimed, “Wen Zou, please escort Captain Liu outside to enjoy music and serve tea.”
The door opened, a sweating Wen Zou greeted Liu Xiao with a smile, “Captain Liu, this way please.”
Liu Xiao didn’t care if Red Ghost personally escorted him out. He smiled and left after glancing at Luo Yan wearing a scary mask.
The door of the quiet room closed, and Yu Qiushui smiled, saying, “I shouldn’t have interfered earlier.”
“Our branch leader Xu Han is still in seclusion, and there’s no news yet. The other active branches are watching us closely.”
“Everyone wants to find something to meddle in our department’s affairs.”
“If my intentions are too obvious, someone might use it against me. I hope you understand.”
Luo Yan nodded slightly, but he didn’t agree in his heart. Liu Xiao’s actions were clearly causing trouble for Team 7. Even if Yu Qiushui couldn’t intervene personally, what harm could a few words do?
But the woman didn’t speak up until after he resolved the situation, then she tried to justify herself with excuses.
Quietly, Yu Qiushui’s name was written in Luo Yan’s little book in his mind.
Yu Qiushui smiled and continued, “As compensation, I will use some of my connections to give you a decent team mission with good rewards.”
“What do you think about Zhang Zemecha?” asked Luo Yan as he sheathed his knife.
Yu Qiushui laughed cheerfully, “Liu Xiao surely doesn’t have any real evidence, and Zhang Ze doesn’t owe him any money.”
“I’ve said all I can.”
Luo Yan replied simply, “That’s enough.”
He then asked, “Do you like music?”
Yu Qiushui glanced at him with soft eyes and said, “I would be interested to hear you sing.”
“If it’s those two women outside, then forget it, they sing even worse than me.”
Luo Yan glanced at her.
Yu Qiushui stood up, walked over to Luo Yan, raised an eyebrow, and said charmingly, “Do you want to hear me sing a song?”
“The mouth is yours, you can sing if you want, I can’t stop you,” Luo Yan replied firmly.
Yu Qiushui laughed, “Your mouth can’t talk, not likable.”
“My songs are only for my man to hear.”
“Will you be my man, Red Ghost?”
Luo Yan decisively shook his head.
“No appeal.”
Yu Qiushui walked to the door, “Go check the online store yourself, I suggest you exchange for some potions, like ‘Elemental Elixir’ to speed up your training, ‘Heavenly Guard Elixir’ to ensure you won’t make mistakes during training.”
“You will receive the new team mission details later.”
“Goodbye.”
Before long, everyone in the quiet room had left.
Luo Yan stayed, he accessed the ‘Heiwu’ internal network and soon noticed his email icon blinking under his account.
[Congratulations! You have completed the team mission and recruited a main team.]
[Your captain status has been officially activated.]
[Your purchasing rights have been officially activated.]
[You have gained 500 contribution points.]
After closing the email, Luo Yan opened the shop, clicked on the ‘Martial Arts’ section, and entered keywords like ‘blood poison’ and ‘secondary infection’ in the search bar.
The results appeared quickly.
[Golden Casket: A detoxification and healing martial arts technique specifically for blood poison, especially secondary infections, can be practiced from intermediate level and above.]
[Price: 5000 contribution points.]
[Note: Only available for purchase by section leaders.]
Found it!
Luo Yan’s eyes lit up at first, but seeing the price and note, he felt discouraged.
As for the price, 5000 contribution points may seem like a lot, but as long as he completes the task, he will eventually have enough.
The biggest issue is the purchasing permission.
It actually requires a section leader-level purchasing permission!
Luo Yan couldn’t help but close his eyes.
Right now, from what he knew, there were three methods to solve the issue of the blood poison in his body.
The first method is to reach the ‘Mystery Achieving Realm’ before the blood poison attacks the heart, to eliminate toxins.
The second method is to become the Minister of the Black Abyss Department before the poison strikes, to exchange for the ‘Golden Casket’ for practice.
The third method is to help Yu Qiushui become a department head as soon as possible, and then obtain the ‘Golden Casket’ from her.
Among these three methods, the first two require time, especially the second one.
The third method seems to be the fastest and most effective.
The problem is, how will Luo Yan ensure that when Yu Qiushui becomes the department head, she will give him the ‘Golden Casket’ instead of using it to manipulate him?
Or even, get rid of him?
